Overview

The City of West Monroe, Louisiana is developing a prequalified list of construction contractors to contract with the city to perform housing repairs as directed for homeowners in the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)-funded Homeowner Rehabilitation Program (HRP or Program).

Selected contractors will be placed on a pre-qualified list and invited to bid on small individual residential rehabilitation projects in the City of West Monroe in compliance with CDBG guidelines and applicable federal, state, and local regulations. The HRP will develop a scope of work for eligible projects and request bids from contractors on the prequalified list for each individual project. Contractors will submit bids and the bid that best meets the scope needs and is within 15% of the Xactimate® estimate will be assigned to the project. Contractors will enter into a fixed price, lump sum contract with payment upon completion of work.

Selected contractors are responsible for adhering to all program requirements as described in the HRP Policies and Procedures. 

Scope of Work

The city intends to select multiple firms for the prequalified list. No single firm is expected to possess expertise in all of the specialty areas listed below.
The selected contractor will be responsible for:
